How much will a homebirth cost?
A birth at home will probably cost a lot less than a hospital birth. You will most likely find that your midwife’s fee is nowhere adequate for the quality of care she gives you. The price of a homebirth midwife in North Carolina ranges from anywhere under $1,800 to $3,500, with the average being $2,500. Your midwife may have a flat rate, offer a sliding scale, (her fee is based on your income), or in rare cases she may offer barter for payment. Some midwives may accept payment by insurance companies, depending on your provider and policy.
